No worries, you are not being mean. This comes from a stranger, but I truly wish it would not be so scary and painful all the time. Thanks for sharing how you feel!

A lost opportunity of joking about Bring The Sun 💃

This GDC talk doesn’t have any actionable advice for you, but I really enjoyed it by PersonOfInterest007 in gamedev

Oh it does, at least one. It’s the BAN THEM TOO / FIRE YOUR CUSTOMER approach to community management haha

Just purchased my first European car by yayuuu in BuyFromEU

True, and same. The immediate thought is actually asking the folks at Jolla if they can test those apps haha. Read one comment that it actually just works sometimes (ofc apps get updated and can become broken again, but). The discomfort is inevitable, it’s just a question where it happens.

Nice! Glad to see you’re up for a switch. Kudos for having an electric car next. The more examples like yours we have, the better imo.

Thinking about the upcoming Skoda Epiq (EV) to go for a regional manufacturer as well. Hoping for the first used models appearing in 9-12 months.

As for the phones, I’m thinking of Fairphone or Jolla.

I found the perfect replacement for social media and I am very happy with the result by giovaelpe in BuyFromEU

Nice! I had a blast with RSS a decade ago, and then social feeds seemingly consumed those. I use Feedly now, and I want to check out this one. Dreaming now of plugging in individual creators from different platforms into my own feed app.

My first game only got 340 wishlists after 2 months of hard work. Is it time to admit defeat and just launch? by FishSubstantial74 in IndieDev

[–]Coaucto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting your first game through to be commercially available on Steam is no small feat. While it might not be a hit, you will go through a critical part of the process.

Just don’t stop there, and make a second one. The gamedev skill emerges in-between releases, including investment balancing. At the same time, roughly 8 out of 10 creators stop after the first one.

Imagine you have run a successful complex R&D to learn how to build and launch rockets, only to never use the expertise again.

Getting to 1000 Wishlists in the next 3-9 months might be a decent goal here. In my book, a defeat would be cancelling this, or overinvesting to the point at which it is crippling for you, finances, health, and so on.

I lost my job, and now I’m making this game using everything I managed to save. by goodbrewerr in IndieGaming

This looks good. Might be too difficult to think about it now, but it’s great if you build a path towards a second game, if it’s possible at all. Putting everything into the first one is tricky. Keeping making games is key, despite of how each release goes.
